Delicious weekend buffet brunch of Turkish foods plus custom omelette/waffle/pancakes. Full restaurant is a bit loud; buffet comprised of all savory items with the exception of spreads to put on items, which is strange given that they have a bakery + restaurant.
A Thousand TalesA répondu le 29 août 2024
Hi Mona; We are so glad you tried our all-you-can-eat weekend breakfast buffet. All of our cheese, jam, and olive options are high-quality traditional Turkish products. The butter, eggs, and honey we use are local Amish products. Each vegetable and fruit is individually chosen to ensure the best taste. We appreciate the feed back.

The service was very good. We were greeted immediately. They offered us Turkish tea which we had not had before. They offered to let us try it and it was delicious. We have had Mediterranean food before but not Turkish. They gave us good explanations of our options and good descriptions of some of the foods that we had not heard of before. We ended up ordering the Sunrise Feast which serves 4-5 people. It was a delightful experience of so many different foods. From french fries and waffles with fresh sweet fruits to tahin pekmez, honey kaymek, 5 different cheeses, cucumbers, olives and it goes on. Most items are served on individual plates so there were about 15-20 plates brought to the table. There were 4 of us with different tastes and everyone went away happy and full. We had to take a loaf of the bread home that they served in the restaurant as it was so good by itself or with the tahin pekmez, honey kaymek or the nutella. Of course we had to wander through the bakery to take home a dessert or two because we certainly did not have room for it with the meal. And all of this for under $20 per person! Unbelievable and so good! Our next visit will be the Tales Family Mixed Grill.

Clean well designed dining area. Service was a little slow and they were out of lamb shish kabobs. Unusual for a Greek restaurant. Salad was huge with very fresh ingredients. Excellent desert options. Bakery on site.
